Chord Energy

Chord Energy presented a strategy plan targeting annual savings of $160 million from operational efficiency and accelerating the rollout of long 4‑mile horizontal wells. The company expects 2026 free cash flow per share of about $12.20 (roughly +40% versus 2024), plans total capital spending of about $1.4 billion, and forecasts production of 157,000–161,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day. Chord highlights a strong balance sheet (net leverage ~0.6x), a shareholder return program with a base dividend of $5.20 per share and prioritized share repurchases, and continued M&A discipline to scale in the Williston Basin. » Más en de.investing.com

Chord Energy reported Q4 2025 EPS of $1.28, missing the forecast of $1.40, while revenue of $1.17 billion exceeded the $1.05 billion expectation by 11.4%. The company reported strong free cash flow (adjusted $175 million), reduced capital expenditures and operational improvements. The stock traded slightly lower premarket; management emphasizes ongoing capital discipline and plans a $1.4 billion capital budget for 2026 focused on longer lateral wells and a higher oil weighting. Risks remain commodity price volatility, operational disruptions and regional competition. » Más en de.investing.com
